Description: This function allows the user to split selected surfaces in several different ways. All the options for splitting surfaces are addressed below.
Usage:
1. DSI prompts to select surface.
2. Upon selection of the surface, DSI prompts:
> SELECT OPTION TO SPLIT (DEFAULT IS SECTION LINE)
• User selects a displayed section line to split a surface.
? LINEAR SEGMENTS
> SELECT NEXT POINT FOR LINEAR SEGMENT
• The user may pick up to 500 locations on the surface to complete a piecewise linear curve.
RESPACE UV LINES
> ENTER THE NUMBERS OF UV LINES: N1, N2
• N1 and N2 cannot be greater than 199.
• The user may choose a desired section line once the user selects the section lines for N1 and N2.
SPLINE CURVE
> SELECT NEXT POINT FOR SPLINE CURVE
• The user may pick up to 500 locations on the surface in order to complete a spline curve.
SURFACE INTERSECTION
> SELECT THE SECOND SURFACE
• Once the user selects the second surface, the first surface splits at the intersection of the two surfaces. The user may split the second surface at the same intersection.
TWO POINTS ON BOUNDARY
> SELECT FIRST POINT ON BOUNDARY
> SELECT SECOND POINT ON BOUNDARY
• DSI splits the surface once the user selects the second boundary point.
UV LINES
> SELECT UV LINE TO SPLIT SURFACE
